He repeated that Moscow is not refusing talks, but that “all the problems are on Ukraine’s side.”

At a press conference at the G20 summit, Lavrov said the West is “trying to politicize” the group’s joint declaration and to “drag in” statements condemning Russia’s actions in Ukraine. He also commented on the prerecorded speech by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the summit, stating that it was “pretty hostile, Russophobic and aggressive.”
